In this article, a non linear family of spaces, based on the energy dissipation, is introduced. This family bridges an energy space (containing weak solutions to Navier-Stokes equation) to a critical space (invariant through the canonical scaling of the Navier-Stokes equation). This family is used to get uniform estimates on higher derivatives to solutions to the 3D Navier-Stokes equations. Tho...

From molecular dynamics simulations on immiscible flows, we find the relative slipping between the fluids and the solid wall everywhere to follow the generalized Navier boundary condition, in which the amount of slipping is proportional to the sum of tangential viscous stress and the uncompensated Young stress. The latter arises from the deviation of the fluid-fluid interface from its static co...

In this paper we prove the existence and uniqueness of strong solutions for the stochastic Navier-Stokes equation in bounded and unbounded domains. These solutions are stochastic analogs of the classical Lions-Prodi solutions to the deterministic Navier-Stokes equation. Local monotonicity of the nonlinearity is exploited to obtain the solutions in a given probability space and this significantl...

The direction splitting approach proposed earlier in [7], aiming at the efficient solution of Navier-Stokes equations, is extended and adopted here to solve the Navier-Stokes-Brinkman equations describing incompressible flows in pure fluid and in porous media. The resulting pressure equation is a perturbation of the incompressibility constraint using a direction-wise factorized operator as prop...

Both the particle based Direct Simulation Monte Carlo (DSMC) method and a compressible Navier-Stokes based continuum method are used to investigate the flow inside micronozzles and to predict the performance of such devices. For the Navier-Stokes approach, both slip and no-slip boundary conditions are applied. Moreover, the two methods have been coupled to be used together in a hybrid particle-...

In this work, the Characteristic-Based-Split (CBS) scheme is combined with the Minimum Polynomial Extrapolation (MPE) method to solve Navier-Stokes problems. We show the case of natural convection where the Navier--Stokes equations are coupled with the temperature equation. The local temperature difference induces a local density difference within the fluid and this produce the fluid motion. BU...

A comparison is made between the Hagen-Poiseuille flow in rigid tubes and networks on one side and the time-independent one-dimensional Navier-Stokes flow in elastic tubes and networks on the other. Analytical relations, a Poiseuille network flow model and two finite element Navier-Stokes one-dimensional flow models have been developed and used in this investigation. The comparison highlights t...

This paper presents asymptotically stable schemes for patching of nonoverlapping subdomains when approximating the compressible Navier–Stokes equations given on conservation form. The scheme is a natural extension of a previously proposed scheme for enforcing open boundary conditions and as a result the patching of subdomains is local in space. The scheme is studied in detail for Burgers’s equa...

This article describes a new numerical solver for the Navier-Stokes equations. The proposed solver is written in Python which is a newly developed language. The Python packages are built to solve the Navier-Stokes equations with existing libraries. We have created discretized coefficient matrices from systems of the Navier-Stokes equations by the finite difference method. In addition we focus o...
